Impressive! - It was an impressive experience! We spent two nights in Akagera National Park. Our guide was very experienced and we saw many animals. Even a hunting leopard in action, like he grabbed an impala. Very sympathetic guide with a lot of knowledge about the animals and their behavior. We can recommend it to anyone.

Fabulous experience! - We absolutely loved our safari and our driver Jean Claude. He was super kind, extremely sweet with our small baby, helped us see the leopard in the dark (!!), had excellent recommendations for lunch, itinerary, and stops along the way from Kigali.
We enjoyed our trip and would recommend it in a heartbeat!

Me and my boyfriend's trip to Akagera national park with our guide Claude - Hello! Me a Ugandan and my Italian boyfriend had our holidayd in Rwanda and took a trip to Akagera national park with our guide Claude.He picked us from our hotel at 5:30am as he had told us and very excellent at driving.We conversed throughout our journey answering to each of our questions and also letting us know things we didn't ask.At the park he hard sharp eyes detecting animals from far and drove us closer to see. On returning we stopped at the local market and helped us moved around and looked for what we wanted,he is so friendly and easy going.At the park we had a good wild drive while searching for animals and we saw Rhinos, giraffe, buffalo,zebras, elephant,kobs and monkeys but we missed to see the lions and the leopard.It was a great trip and the experience was amazing.Thanks

Trip to Akagera National Park - My visit to Akagera National Park with "Journey Africa Wild" was nothing short of amazing. Our tour guide Jean Claude is the best. He made sure he was at the apartment for pick up as early as 5:30 AM as agreed. Throughout the journey, he was patient and willing to answer many of our numerous questions related to Rwanda. We discussed different subjects ranging from Geography to local and East African politics, to investment opportunities in Rwanda, to quality of life in Rwanda you name it. Through his answers, you could tell he was really smart and demonstrated true professionalism throughout the Journey.
While at the park, even though it was a rainy day, and the animals were mostly in hiding, he was still very patient and tried to explore alternative routes and constantly communicated with other guards to ensure we got to see as many animals as possible.
Lastly, on our way back, we communicated how expensive it is to get foodstuffs in the Kigali city center. He made sure to help us get to a local market where we easily got the foodstuff we needed at a very affordable price. He also helped communicate with the local merchants, as we struggled to understand the local dialect. Thanks, Jean Claude and the Journey Africa wild for making our trip memorable.

Beautiful Safari in Akagera National Park - It was amazing spending time with our driver Jean Claude in Akagera National Park. Akagera is absolutely stunning, so it is a very pleasant place to be whether or not you see animals. But we were fortunate to have a great animal viewing experience. We saw around 25 elephants (with a few very close to our vehicle), 4 rhinos, an amazing troop of baboons with around 60 members young and old, over 20 giraffes, over a hundred buffalo, dozens of hippos, a crocodile, and several species of antelope. We also saw amazing birds like the African king fish eagle.
It was a terrific experience. Jean Claude was amazing and went above and beyond to try to help us see a lion or leopard. We were not able to on this day, but it was still a fantastic experience. Jean Claude did an amazing job spotting animals and teaching us about them. I would strongly recommend.
